To begin integrating Airtable, Google Gemini, and Gmail, you must first access Pabbly Connect. This platform allows seamless automation and integration between different applications.

Start by visiting the Pabbly website. If you don’t have an account, sign up for free. Once logged in, navigate to the Pabbly Connect section by clicking on the ‘Access Now’ button. This will take you to the Pabbly Connect dashboard where you can create new workflows.

2. Creating a Workflow in Pabbly Connect

In this step, you will create a new workflow in Pabbly Connect. Click on the ‘Create Workflow’ button, and a dialog box will appear for naming your workflow. Name it something descriptive, like ‘Write Emails from Subject Line using Google Generative AI’.

• Select a folder to save your workflow.
• Click on ‘Create’ to proceed.

Once created, you will see two sections labeled ‘Trigger’ and ‘Action’. The trigger is the event that starts the workflow, while the action is what happens as a result. In this case, the trigger will be Airtable.

3. Setting Up the Trigger with Airtable

To set up the trigger in Pabbly Connect, select Airtable as the trigger application. You will then need to choose a trigger event, which in this case is ‘New Record’. Click on ‘Connect’ to link your Airtable account with Pabbly Connect.

After connecting, you will be prompted to select a base from your Airtable account. Choose the base that contains your email details. Ensure you have created a field named ‘Created’ with the type set to ‘Created Time’. This is essential for capturing the trigger response.

4. Generating Email Content Using Google Gemini

Next, you will add an action to generate email content using Google Gemini through Pabbly Connect. Select Google Generative AI as the action application and choose the action event ‘Generate Content’. Connect your Google AI Studio account by providing an API key.

• Log into Google AI Studio to create an API key.
• Map the details from Airtable, including the subject line and description.

In the prompt section, instruct Google Gemini to write a simple email based on the provided details. Once everything is set up, click on ‘Save and Send Test’ to generate the email content.

5. Sending the Email via Gmail

The final step involves sending the generated email through Gmail using Pabbly Connect. Select Gmail as your action application and choose the action event ‘Send Email’. Connect your Gmail account by granting necessary permissions.

Map the recipient’s email address, subject line, and the generated email content. After ensuring all fields are filled correctly, click on ‘Save and Send Test’. This will send the email to the specified recipient, completing the automation process.
